Best Cod Or Haddock Baked In Cream Recipes

BAKED FISH WITH LEMON CREAM SAUCE (ONE BAKING DISH!)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°C / 390°F (all oven types).
• Place fish in a baking dish - ensure the fish isn't crammed in too snugly. See video or photos in post. Sprinkle both sides of fish with salt and pepper.
• Place butter, cream, garlic, mustard, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a microwave proof jug or bowl. Microwave in 2 x 30 sec bursts, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
• Sprinkle fish with shallots, then pour over sauce.
• Bake for 10 - 12 minutes, or until fish is just cooked. Remove from oven and transfer fish to serving plates. Spoon over sauce, and garnish with parsley and lemon wedges if using.

BAKED COD IN CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400-degrees.
• Prepare cream sauce (see instructions below) and set aside, keeping warm.
• Spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray and place cod fillets in the dish. Sprinkle with salt.
• Combine melted butter and garlic and brush over fillets, reserving any leftover butter mixture.
• Sprinkle seasoned breadcrumbs over fillets and pour remaining butter mixture over the top.
• Pour cream sauce in the spaces between the cod fillets so it fills up the baking dish and just the tops of the fillets are visible.
• Place in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the cream sauce starts bubbling.
• When the sauce starts bubbling up, set oven to "broil" and broil for about 3-5 minutes or until the fillets start to turn golden brown.
• Keep a CLOSE eye on it to make sure it doesn't start to burn.
• Remove from oven and serve with potatoes, rice, or vegetables.

NEW ENGLAND BAKED HADDOCK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Put a spoonful of the melted butter in a baking sheet or dish and spread to coat the bottom.
• Combine the bread crumbs (1 cup) with the rest of the 6 tablespoons of melted butter.
• Salt and pepper both sides of the fish liberally (I used about 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper), and lay in the buttered baking dish.
• Spread bread crumbs - all of them - evenly over the top of the fish. I use my hands to sprinkle it on (it won't really stick like traditional breading - it's more like a topping).
• Bake for 15 minutes, or until fish is cooked thoroughly (and flakes easily).
• Serve with a squeeze of lemon juice and a garnish of fresh parsley, if desired.

BAKED COD WITH GARLIC AND HERB RITZ CRUMBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Pour 2 tablespoons olive oil in a 9 x 9-inch ceramic baking dish (it should be just big enough to hold the fish) and tilt the dish to coat the bottom with oil. Place the fish fillets in the dish and turn to coat both sides with the oil. Sprinkle the fish with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and bake for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the cracker crumbs, panko, parsley, garlic, lemon zest, and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Add the melted butter and stir until evenly moistened. Set aside.
• Remove the fish from the oven and pour the wine and lemon juice directly on the fillets. Pat the crumb mixture evenly onto the fillets, pressing gently to help them adhere. (Don't worry if some crumbs get into the sauce!)
• Return the pan to the oven for 12 minutes, until the fillets are just cooked through in the center, depending on the thickness of the fish. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the pan juices and lemon wedges.

PAN-ROASTED FISH FILLETS WITH HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Pat fillets dry with a paper towel. Season on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat a heavy 10-inch nonstick or cast-iron skillet over high heat. When the pan is hot, add the oil. Place the fillets in the pan, skin side down (if applicable), laying them down away from your body. If fillets have skin, press down gently with a spatula for about 20 seconds to prevent curling.
• Lower heat to medium and let sizzle until fish is golden and caramelized around edges, about 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully flip fillets and add butter and thyme to pan. Tilt pan slightly to let the melted butter pool at one end. Use a spoon to baste the fish with the pooled butter. Continue basting until golden all over and cooked through, 45 to 90 seconds more, depending on the thickness of your fish. Serve immediately with chopped parsley (if using) and lemon wedges.
